Felted Slippers Pattern finally here!

I've had so much fun creating this pattern, and I can't even begin to count how many pairs of slippers I've knit already -- I've got a great start on my Christmas list! The pattern has been many months in the design, but well worth the wait because the slippers are super comfortable!

The slippers are knit as flat pieces on the round green or yellow KK loom, with seams on the top of the foot and at the heel.

After felting, they are custom shaped to the foot of the wearer for a perfect fit.

This pattern includes sizes from a youth large (women's size 3) up to a men's size 13. I hope you enjoy making these and giving them as gifts as much as I have enjoyed creating the pattern.

I've been loom knitting since mid-2004. There was very little info available about this art at that time, and the same questions were
being asked over and over. I started collecting all the information I could to share with others. I've translated needle knitting techniques
to be accomplished with looms, and I have come up with some new stitches and techniques of my own.

I created the Loom Knitting website as a central location for instructions and patterns. New information and patterns are being added all the time.
